John Lewis Christmas Advert Alternatives Show What The Story Could Look Like In Real Life

While many Brits were on Wednesday busy expressing their gratitude to John Lewis for the joy its Christmas advert brought to them - others more amusingly suggested what would actually happen if their advert took place in real life.

This year’s advert features the story of a little girl and her dog who both love to bounce, set to a version of Randy Crawford’s One Day I’ll Fly Away.

Buster the dog can be seen watching longingly as wild animals enjoy jumping on Bridget’s new trampoline the night before Christmas - but the boxer finally gets his chance the next morning and is watched wide-eyed by his human companion as he finally gets a go.
